Hi! My friend just got married last month and the song, "GIVE YOU AWAY" that she used for her Father-Daughter dance was the most beautiful thing I've ever heard! Everyone at the reception was so moved by it. I had to get a copy for myself so I got the info.
Apparantly, the duet was written by an independent artist which is why I've never heard it played (kind of nice since so many of the father-daughter songs are overused). Anyway, here's the info for you. I promise, you won't be disappointed!

How about "My Father's Eyes" by Eric Clapton?
Or "She's Leaving Home" by the Beatles (it is on Sgt. Pepper)?
My father and I actually danced to "Rainbow Connection" from the Muppet movie.
This site has a lot of suggestions:

How about In My Life by the Beatles?
Or another beatles song that I love is Across the Universe.

How about one of the following:
"In My Life" by The Beatles
"Wild World" by Cat Stevens
"Daughter" by Loudon Wainwright III (from the movie Knocked Up)
Good Luck!

Im doing the same thing...I picked there you'll be- By Faith Hill..
Listen to the song and read the lyrics at the same time.
~When I think back
On these times
And the dreams
We left behind
I'll be glad 'cause
I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back
On these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
Well you showed me
How it feels
To feel the sky
Within my reach
And I always
Will remember all
The strength you
Gave to me
Your love made me
Make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
'Cause I always saw in you
My light, my strength
And I want to thank you
Now for all the ways
You were right there for me
You were right there for me
For always
In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
I wish you luck!!
